Better seed support for (random).
* doc/lispref/numbers.texi (Random Numbers): Document new behavior of the calls (random) and (random STRING). * etc/NEWS: Document new behavior of (random), (random "string"). * lisp/play/5x5.el, lisp/play/animate.el, lisp/play/cookie1.el: * lisp/play/dissociate.el, lisp/play/doctor.el, lisp/play/dunnet.el: * lisp/play/gomoku.el, lisp/play/landmark.el, lisp/play/mpuz.el: * lisp/play/tetris.el, lisp/play/zone.el: * lisp/calc/calc-comb.el (math-init-random-base): * lisp/play/blackbox.el (bb-init-board): * lisp/play/life.el (life): * lisp/server.el (server-use-tcp): * lisp/type-break.el (type-break): Remove unnecessary call to (random t). * lisp/net/sasl.el (sasl-unique-id-function): Change (random t) to (random), now that the latter is more random. * lisp/play/life.el (life-initialized): Remove no-longer-needed var. * lisp/gnus/gnus-sync.el (gnus-sync-lesync-setup): * lisp/gnus/message.el (message-canlock-generate, message-unique-id): Change (random t) to (random), now that the latter is more random. * lisp/org/org-id.el (org-id-uuid): Change (random t) to (random), now that the latter is more random. * src/emacs.c (main): Call init_random. * src/fns.c (Frandom): Set the seed from a string argument, if given. Remove long-obsolete Gentzel cruft. * src/lisp.h, src/sysdep.c (seed_random): Now takes address and size, not long. (init_random): New function.
